The healing power of copper
has actually been recognized for thousands of years. The Egyptians used
it more than 4,000 years ago to sterilize wounds and drinking water.
The Aztecs used the metal to treat skin conditions.

Today, copper is a common
ingredient in medicines such as antiseptic and antifungal creams. And,
earlier this year, the United States' Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) approved the registration of a proposed public health claim
stating that surfaces composed of certain copper alloys can kill off
life-threatening bacteria.

According to Guillermo
Figueroa of the nutrition and food technology department of the
University of Chile in Santiago, it’s the ions released by the copper
that kill bacteria.

“Copper ions separate
on contact with bacteria and cause irreversible damage to the bacteria's
cells," Figueroa said. "It is a very swift, physical chemical process.
They die quickly."

Copper has even been found
to be a very effective at exterminating Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus (MSRA), more commonly known as “the super bug."
